    First, in case you didn’t notice, the McCain thing is a joke from The Onion.

    Next, I haven’t mentioned William Ayers because it’s a non-issue. Yes, Ayers was President of The Weather Underground — formed in 1969 to protest the Vietnam War — but to propose that Obama had anything to do with it is ridiculous.

    Even if your supposition of Ayers being Obama’s boss at CAC is correct, so what? I’m sure any number of my bosses have skeletons in their closet, but that doesn’t implicate me in any way.

    By the time Obama met Ayers, the former terrorist was doing good works. Good works can be done by people with questionable backgrounds. Are we to look down our noses because of past bad behavior? Maybe you can afford to, but the poor that were being helped perhaps do not have that luxury.

    Obama probably did give money to ACORN, but what they do with that money is out of his hands. It’s a community organization with stated good intentions. Certainly falsifying registration information is wrong and illegal, but the chances of it affecting real votes is slim, and to suggest that Obama, a candidate of a major political party, would risk his reputation and the election by supporting illegal activity is far-fetched to say the least.

    Your “facts” are fabricated, paranoid, and indicate a distinct racial bias (read “white supremacist”). The deaths attributed to the Weatherman Underground are exactly zero, unless you count the members of the group that died constructing bombs. Ayers and Obama are not “friends.” ACORN is not an arm of Obama’s campaign.

    Do some real research rather than spouting racist fantasies fueled by paranoid conspiracy theories.
